Those Memories I'll Remember : the different world

Chapter 7

Chapter 7

Thing that I have done all my life. Denying the thing that the world believes in. Why can't I? I haven't seen it. For me, when I listen any sacrificing fallen love story, it seems nonsense. None of it ever seemed real to me.

"You don't believe in love, do you?"

-"yes I don't. And especially not in these fairytales." I said in a soft manner so it won't sound rude.

"Have anything ever happened to you which you won't ever believed would ever happen but did? If yes, then you have to believe in this story. And you will believe in all those nonsense stories of love once you have it by yourself."

-"hehe....sure." I said laughing as he started to go back in.

"Don't wanna come in?" He said just before entering the door.

-"nup,...I'll stay a while longer." And so he went back in.

I stood there. All alone under the newly night, thinking of the stars and rewriting them concept, and what Ethan meant by when he talked about the sun and moon. Was it really possible? But how can I think that when I'm experiencing something so weird by myself?

But then, out of nowhere the thing that Aaron has told Ethan about me struck my head. What it could be? I should ask him! So I hurried back in to find Aaron.

I walked back and found both Aaron and Ethan stuck to TV in the hall, playing video game, laughing and having fun. Each trying his best to win and doing hilarious stuff in between and laughing together.

I saw Mr.Ahn looking at them from a distance near a table in the kitchen. I felt it would be nice to ask him, he would probably know.

So, I walked to him and stood beside him as he was seeing the game. He realized me there and turned to me.

"It's been a while, how have you been? Everything smooth?"

-"I'm good, it's all smooth."

"Nice to hear that." And then his look suddenly changed to a serious one. "How much time have you been here?"

-"We all came together from the airport a while ago."

"No, I mean in this world."

-"oh that.." My smile faded, " From afternoon I guess."

"It's not much time, its okay then I guess." He said and started looking back at the game smiling. I stood there thinking what he meant by not much time. Is there something about which I still don't know?

As I was thinking Mr.Ahn started to talk in a friendly way. In a way in which he does to Aaron

"They are having pretty much fun playing that game of no sense."

-"They look good together."

"I never ever even thought they both could be friends."

-"hmm?...why is that?"

"For they both are so different. While Ethan was the most popular boy in school, Aaron scarcely made any friends."

-"why that?"

"who knows! When I asked him, he just said that he isn't comfortable around people."

-"then how did Ethan and Aaron became friends?"

"all I know is that Aaron told me he was the first person after me with whom he was so comfortable."

-"I see." I said smiling. He was comfortable with me too.

" They never fight. Always have fun. They both are each other's only family."

-"It would be nice to have such a friend."

In just a minute later their game finally end where Ethan was running behind Aaron claiming that he should have won and Aaron ran from one corner to another teasing Ethan for his defeat. Mr.Ahn laughed as he watched them along with me. And in a sudden Aaron was running towards me,looking at back, doesn't realizing me standing there. Till I realized, it was too late. Maybe he realized it later too. He ran towards me and seeing me just in front of him, slipped in surprise all upon me and we both fell down the ground. He somehow managed to protect my head by wrapping it in his arms. When I get back to my senses from the sudden shock, we both were on the floor beside each other with his both arms wrapped around me. It felt as if he was giving me a tight warm hug.

It felt warm. And, at that moment, my heart was beating in a speed of a horse as if its gonna burst out in any second. It felt so nice that I didn't even moved a bit. I just stood there and so did he. While Mr.Ahn and Ethan were asking if we were okay or not.

Aaron let his armed off me and laid on the floor. I laid beside him, unable to move as my heart raced. And suddenly the vase kept on the table near us fell from Mr.Ahn hand when he was trying to kneel down to help. The vase came straight upon me. I closed my eyes.

There was a sound of glass breaking and Ethan screaming Aaron's name. I opened my eyes and saw Aaron just upon me with blood flowing from his back as he took the glass vase.

"you okay?" he asked in voice full of pain. I nodded my head. He collapsed upon me and it was like a another hug as he was just above me half unconscious.

"I'm glad it's me. I'm glad you're okay." He said before collapsing.

Mr.Ahn helped Aaron and took him to his room. While Ethan helped me to stand. I was starting to feel dizzy but wanted to see if Aaron was alright. I was fighting from myself just so that I could stay a little longer there. Deep inside I was praying to let me stay, even if it's just for a moment, even his one glimpse is enough.

"You're bleeding." He said with concern. He looked scared. But I ignored it and ran towards Aaron's room. But in the middle of the hallway, my eyes starting to hurt so much that I wasn't able to see. Leaning my hand on the wall I kept on walking. And suddenly my legs became so weak, my heart was hurting. I sat on the floor, one hand on my chest and another on the floor holding me up. Ethan came from behind and sat beside me all in a hurry. Took my hand from the floor and hugged me tight.

"Don't worry, It's gonna be okay." His voice was shaking. I wasn't able to move. My head just lied over his shoulders; with a lot of efforts I was able to open my eyes a little. I could see Ethan hugging me and trying to help me get up. I could see how scared he was. But why? Why is he so much scared for me? And while he tried to get me up, my eyes fell towards Aaron's room. I could see him in his bed while Mr.Ahn was bringing First Aid. My eyes closed.

"You're gonna be totally fine." I heard a shaking voice. I knew it was him, but it sounded different.

And before I could know, I was in a deep sleep. Or maybe my deep sleep was over.
